Being an experienced leader, share your opinion on how the adoption of modern technologies has impacted the hospitality sector. How has your association incorporated such technologies into its daily operations?

Technologies are helping hotels to be more efficient in their communication with their guests, reduce labor expenses, increase room revenue and other revenues, and be quicker to improve our standards and processes.

What initial challenges did you and your association face, and how did you drive your Hotel to sustain operations while ensuring the safety of your customers? 

It’s all about the employees. After the pandemic, we had some safety issues in many hotels since we were short-staffed. Not only having a full team is important, but their training is paramount. Once the team is well trained, it’s important to keep them engaged and happy in their workplace with good business culture. A committed employee will give it back in customer service and safety awareness. Empowerment and ownership are the keys to success!

What would be your advice to budding entrepreneurs who aspire to venture into the hospitality industry?

It’s a question of passion. Passion for the service and the people. Best advice: surround yourself with experts in their fields. You don’t need to be good at everything. You just have to inspire trust and give it to your team in return. It’s important to have a clear vision of where you want to take your team.

How do you envision scaling your Hotels’ functions and offerings in 2023 and beyond?

With technology, we tend to forget about human beings. Most of the hotels are pretty much the same. In the end, the difference is the people! Creating a unique guest experience is the best way to differentiate our establishment from others.

Please give us a few testimonials of your clients/customers and a list of awards/recognitions that accurately highlight your association’s position in the market.

What is your opinion on the future of the hospitality industry concerning changing customer preferences due to advancements and innovative services?

In the upcoming years, hotels will face two types of guests: those who prioritize technology for efficiency and those who value human interaction. Meeting guest expectations promptly is crucial, including reducing wait times, providing 24-hour services, and responding quickly to emails. New technologies like mobile room keys, robots for room service, and chatbots for customer service can help, but personalization and warmth should not be sacrificed. Incorporating new technologies is necessary to make up for staff shortages, but hotels must maintain a personalized experience for guests. Le Saint-Sulpice Hôtel Montréal is embracing new technologies while prioritizing a personalized customer experience through their signature SoSulpice initiative.
